Beast Taming: Starting From Zero - Chapter 1507
Chapter 1507. Chapter 1501 The Cold Resistance Competition (Part 2)
At this moment, the stands around the arena were completely silent. It wasn’t
until a burst of wild laughter, “Cheers! Cheers!” that the commotion began, with many spectators erupting in laughter.
“Hahaha! What happened to the Nether Ring Monarch? Wasn’t it supposed to be a Royal-level pet? It’s the first to be eliminated!”
“Run! Run!”
“Go! Go!”
“Is that even a question? The Nether Ring Monarch is too strong; the Snow Blind Deer’s skills can’t freeze it at all.”
“It’s because it’s too strong that it was the first to be eliminated, that’s hilarious! Hahahaha.”
Amidst the clamor, the host pet reacted, calling out twice into the microphone with a regretful tone:
“Piao Piao.”
“Piao Piao.”
The first eliminated contestant had just been decided; it was the Nether Ring Monarch I just introduced. It’s a real pity; the Nether Ring Monarch was the first Royal-level pet to register in all these years of the Ice Resistance Competition, and I didn’t expect it to be eliminated so quickly.
“Xun Xun.”
Little Xun Bao stood on the field, its face ashen, as if its life force had been drained by some Ghost-type pet.
“Qingqing! Qingqing!”
In the audience, Qingbao pointed at Xiaoxunbao and burst into laughter.
“Ting, Ting,”
Tingbao instinctively wanted to laugh, but then remembered that this was the boss and quickly suppressed his smile.
“Ya Ya.”
Ya Bao shook his head, sighed with a “disappointed” expression, and called out, indicating that Xiaoxunbao’s elimination was too fast.
“Gang Quan.”
Gang Bao called out calmly, indicating that it was okay, his own beast tamer hadn’t been eliminated yet.
“Ya Ya!”
Ya Bao’s eyes lit up again, and he called out excitedly to the audience.
“Xia Xia!” Xia Lala, who was feeling sorry for Xiaoxunbao a second ago, was now cheering for Qiao Sang with equal excitement.
Mikaela shook his head and sighed, “I almost forgot that Xiaoxunbao, as a royal-level pet, can easily break through the freezing effect of pets below its level with a simple movement.”
“Jiu Jiu.”
Jiu Bugu showed a sympathetic expression and called out, indicating that this little guy had been frozen for nothing during this time.
“It’s alright though.” Michaela looked at a frozen figure on the field and said, “Qiao Sang also participated in the competition.”
Frozen Qiao Sang: “!!!”
What happened?
Little Treasure was eliminated?
So quickly?!
Qiao Sang was completely dumbfounded inside the ice shell.
According to her expectations, Little Treasure had a very high chance of winning the championship, but it was the first one eliminated?
Qiao Sang wanted to look in the direction of Little Treasure, but she didn’t dare to move.
Judging from the audience’s conversation, Little Treasure must have moved casually and caused the ice shell around it to break. If she moved, wouldn’t the ice shell break too?
She didn’t dare to gamble.
After all, now that Little Treasure was gone, only she was left to participate.
Although she didn’t think she could win the championship, it would be too embarrassing to lose so easily like Little Treasure. Qiao Sang resisted the urge to look at Little Treasure’s position.
At the same time, the withered Little Treasure teleported back to the audience seats.
“Qingqing! Qingqing!”
Qingbao looked at Little Treasure and burst into laughter.
Little Xunbao seemed utterly lost, letting the mockery continue.
“Ya Ya,”
Ya Bao called out comfortingly, indicating that losing wasn’t a problem, as its Beastmaster was still there.
Little Xunbao remained listless.
“Qing Qing,”
Qing Bao laughed for a while, but seeing Little Xunbao’s lack of response, it gave a “boring” look and stopped laughing.
Xia Lala, looking at Little Xunbao’s appearance, suddenly thought of something, and the flower bud on its neck swayed slightly.
A refreshing fragrance instantly wafted out, spreading throughout the air.
The rich scent entered its nostrils, and Little Xunbao was initially startled, but then, as if its energy had returned, its face regained its radiance.
It sighed and called out,
“Xun Xun~”
It hadn’t expected the Snow Blind Deer’s freezing effect to be so weak; it had only moved its paw, and the ice had cracked.
“Ting Ting,”
Ting Bao called out seriously, indicating that it must be because its boss was too strong; the beast that used the freezing skill was far weaker than it.
“Xunxun~”
Little Xunbao nodded with complete agreement.
It was indeed too strong.
Qingbao rolled its eyes beside it.
“Tingting.”
Tingbao suddenly remembered something and called out, indicating that only its own Beastmaster was left.
“Xunxun! Xunxun!”
Hearing this, Little Xunbao looked at the arena, waving its paws and shouting loudly, cheering for its Beastmaster.
“Qingqing.”
Qingbao glanced at Little Xunbao, then transformed into the wind and arrived beside Xia Lala, showing an admiring expression and calling out, “Your skills are really amazing.
” “Xiaxia.”
Xia Lala blushed upon hearing this.
Now only Qiao Sang was left. Michaela glanced again at the frozen figure, then turned to Xia Lala and the others, saying,
“Let’s go.”
“Ya Ya!”
Ya Bao called out without hesitation, indicating that it wouldn’t leave; it wanted to watch its Beastmaster’s match.
“Xiaxia?”
Xia Lala called out with a puzzled expression, indicating why they were leaving, since the competition had only just begun.
Tingbao glared at Michaela with a hostile look.
“Penpen,”
Penjiamei translated, indicating that they didn’t want to leave.
Michaela said, “The longest ice resistance competition has ever lasted seven days, during which the contestants cannot move. Qiao Sang is an A-level professional beast tamer. With her physical abilities, she has a high chance of becoming the champion among all the contestants. In the past, she would have to stay in the ice shell for at least seven days. Apart from the contestants’ relatives and friends, or spectators who have nothing better to do, almost no one will stay to watch. Are you going to stay here for seven days?”
“Ya Ya!”
Ya Bao called out without hesitation, indicating that it wanted to stay.
“Pen Pen,”
Pen Jia Mei translated.
Michaela looked at it and asked, “Aren’t you going to train?”
She remembered that Ya Bao loved training.
“Ya Ya!”
Ya Bao first looked conflicted, then seemed to have figured something out, its eyes lit up, and it called out, indicating that it was okay, it could let its clone train.
“Pen Pen,”
Pen Jia Mei translated.
Michaela: “.”
“Xia Xia,”
Xia Lala called out, indicating that it didn’t want to leave either.
Ting Bao looked at Michaela unhappily, wanting to say that it wouldn’t leave, but it was worried that this annoying human would think it was paying attention to her, so it shut its mouth again.
“Xun Xun~”
Little Xun Bao looked serious and called out, indicating that it wanted to stay and accompany its beast master.
With such a legitimate reason to skip training, it didn’t want to miss it.
“Steel Power.”
Just as Penjami was about to translate again, Steel Treasure called out, indicating that its Beastmaster had just spoken to it, telling it to go back and continue training as usual.
“Tooth.”
Tooth Treasure called out, indicating that it wanted to stay.
“Steel Power.”
Steel Treasure called out, indicating that its Beastmaster said it could come to see her when it finished training and had time.
“Tooth.”
Tooth Treasure sighed, showing a resigned expression, and called out, “Okay then.
” “Xunxun~”
Little Xunbao called out, indicating that it wanted to stay; it could broadcast live from here.
Its Beastmaster was frozen, so training was out of the question.
“Steel Power.”
Steel Treasure glanced at it and called out, indicating that it was now the first eliminated contestant; was it sure it wanted to stay?
Little Xunbao’s body suddenly stiffened, then it called out,
“Xunxun.”
It felt it still needed to go back for training.
“Qingqing.”
Qingbao first gave Little Xunbao a disdainful look, then called out, indicating that it should go back now; it wanted to train.
After speaking, it looked at Tingbao and called out,
“Qingqing.”
Sixth brother, let’s train together.
Hearing this, Tingbao remembered its conversation with its beast tamer earlier, and remained silent for a moment, without refuting.
Lubao didn’t say anything, but silently jumped back into its backpack, stretched out its paw, and zipped up the zipper.
Xia Lala wanted to say something, but Gangbao looked at it and called out,
“Gangquan.”
Everyone has left; if you stay, your beast tamer will worry.
“Xiaxia.”
Xia Lala hesitated for a moment, then called out, indicating that it should go back with everyone.
“Penpen.”
Seeing that things were settled, Penjiamei looked at its beast tamer and called out, indicating that there were no problems.
Michaela laughed, “Then let’s go back now.”
He then gestured to Penjame with his eyes.
Penjame’s eyes glowed blue.
The next second, he disappeared with his Beastmaster and Fangbao.
Time passed slowly, and the audience gradually left the stands.
A cold wind howled.
The frozen contestants remained on the field.
Time seemed to drag on. Josang looked up at the darkening sky and sighed heavily.
Day 1 of the competition: Josang was a little hungry.
Day 2: Josang was both sleepy and hungry. Day
3: Josang was exhausted, sleepy, and hungry.
Days 4, 5, and 6:
Hotel suite.
Steelbao, who was eating an energy meal, suddenly frowned. Just
now, it felt a slight pain in its mind, something that had never happened before except when it was occasionally affected by skills during battles.
Steelbao quickly understood and called out in its mind:
“Steelbao?” ”A little,” Josang replied weakly. Honestly, before participating in this competition, she never imagined it would be so difficult. Originally, she had planned to be eliminated early, giving Little Treasure a high chance of making it to the end. However, Little Treasure was eliminated early, forcing her to persevere. The so-called cold-resistance competition wasn’t as simple as she imagined. Every night, the temperature would drop by at least ten degrees Celsius. Every day, she not only had to fight the cold but also hunger, and sleep was difficult; otherwise, she might simply fall into a deep sleep. Many contestants who fell asleep while frozen were eliminated this way. The longer it went on, the weaker her resistance became. To be honest, if it weren’t for the fact that only she and one other contestant remained, she would have considered giving up. ”Steel Power.” ”Steel Power.” In a flash of thought, Steel Treasure’s voice echoed in her mind. The other remaining contestant was Bao Rongbo, who was naturally resistant to the cold. Michaela said that depending on the situation, it might be able to hold on for another two days. If she really couldn’t manage, she shouldn’t compete; no one could guarantee that Qi Kingdom had the Ice Glass Fruit that Lu Bao needed. ”But there’s still a glimmer of hope, isn’t there?” Qiao Sang smiled weakly. “Don’t worry, I can still hold on.” She didn’t want to keep going anymore. Why hadn’t Bao Rongbo been eliminated yet? Gang Bao: “…” On the icy, snowy field, Qiao Sang couldn’t control her thoughts at all. She had no idea that her thoughts were being synchronized with Gang Bao’s mind. She only felt tired, hungry, sleepy, a little cold, and even had a headache. Luckily, Xiao Xunbao was eliminated early; otherwise, given its active nature, even if it wasn’t eliminated on the first day, it definitely wouldn’t have been able to persevere on the second or third day. She wondered what skills Ya Bao and the others had been training these past few days, how Lu Bao and Qing Bao’s partial energy transformation training was going, and how Xiao Xunbao was. Qiao Sang forced herself to keep thinking about it to avoid falling asleep. But intense fatigue and drowsiness still overwhelmed her. Her head was spinning, and she vaguely heard Gang Bao’s voice, which made her a little more awake. She continued to flash thoughts in her mind: one Ya Bao, two Ya Bao, three Ya Bao. Suddenly, a sharp, needle-like pain struck her mind. Hiss. Qiao Sang instantly woke up with the pain. ”Steel Power.” Steel Baby’s voice followed immediately. ” Why don’t you just eliminate yourself?” Qiao Sang paused, about to refuse, then remembered something and asked, ”Are you in pain too?” ”Steel Power.” Steel Baby was silent for a moment, then barked, indicating it was in some pain. Qiao Sang, enduring the pain, smiled and said:
“You’re not thinking I’ll end the match early just because you say it hurts, are you?”
Gangbao: “.”
Qiao Sang continued, “I know your pain tolerance. If it really hurts unbearably, you won’t say anything.”
“Gangquan.”
Gangbao sighed and called out, indicating that since you’re a Beast Tamer, your headache is just brain pain. If it lasts a long time, it won’t affect your brain, right?
Qiao Sang was stunned. After a few seconds, she said,
“It shouldn’t. If there’s really something wrong with my brain, it won’t just hurt this much, and there’s Lu Bao here too.”
After saying “brain,” Qiao Sang was silent for two seconds and began to sense the activity within her brain.
Soon, she noticed that the nerves in her brain were throbbing and expanding.
It seemed like there was a breakthrough. Qiao Sang felt a thought as she sensed the activity within her brain.
You see, since becoming an A-level Beast Tamer, she had never felt such a significant breakthrough in her brain.
Could it be that freezing for a long time could cause a breakthrough in the brain?
Thinking this, Qiao Sang’s heart raced, and even the sharp pain in her head seemed to lessen considerably.
If prolonged freezing could truly lead to a breakthrough in her brain, wouldn’t she be able to quickly shorten the time it took to become an S-rank Beastmaster?
Qiao Sang instantly perked up, and her drowsiness dissipated considerably.
An S-rank Beastmaster was undoubtedly the pinnacle of all Beastmasters; many A-rank Beastmasters spent their entire lives striving to become S-rank.
To be honest, she had a certain degree of confidence in becoming an S-rank Beastmaster, but she didn’t know how long it would take—years, decades, or even more.
Becoming an S-rank Beastmaster in decades was already an extremely rare feat.
But now, that time could potentially be shortened again.
Qiao Sang’s heart pounded even faster.
In the blink of an eye, the eyes of the only two contestants still encased in ice shells finally swirled, and they fell into a coma. (End of Chapter)
